HPD patrol officers responded to an assault in-progress call at a strip center parking lot at the above address and found an unresponsive male near the driveway of the strip center. Houston Fire Department paramedics transported the male to an area hospital where he was pronounced deceased.
A preliminary investigation indicated the male was possibly involved in an argument and was assaulted by an unknown male suspect(s).
